Whether you are interested in history, architecture or local culture, these attractions provide an excellent insight into the development and identity of Roses through the centuries.
The Roses Municipal Theatre is one of the town's leading cultural venues. Throughout the year it hosts a diverse programme including theatre productions, concerts, dance performances, film screenings, conferences and a wide range of cultural events. Its schedule features both local artists and national and international companies.
With its modern facilities and welcoming atmosphere, the Municipal Theatre plays an important role in the cultural life of Roses and is a popular meeting place for both residents and visitors.
Located in the centre of Roses, the Church of Santa Maria is the town's main religious building. Constructed between the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, it features a restrained Neoclassical design with Baroque influences. Its bright interior and peaceful atmosphere make it a pleasant place to visit for both residents and visitors.
The religious history of Roses extends much further back. The remains of the former Romanesque Monastery of Santa Maria, founded during the Middle Ages, can still be explored inside the Citadel of Roses, reflecting the town's long and rich heritage.
Overlooking the Bay of Roses from Punta de la Poncella, the "Castell de la Trinitat" is one of the town's most iconic landmarks. Built in the mid-16th century during the reign of Emperor Charles V, it worked together with the Citadel as part of a major defensive system protecting the harbour and coastline from naval attacks.
Today, following extensive restoration, visitors can explore its Renaissance military architecture and exhibitions explaining its history. From the fortress, spectacular panoramic views stretch across the Bay of Roses, the Gulf of Roses, the Cap de Creus Natural Park and, on clear days, as far as the Pyrenees.
